what is the difference between this one and the one from Celestron website.

I bought this one when I broke the one I had on my NexStar127. Pretty much the same, except it didn't have the battery cover. Mine did not have the logo on it, like in the picture. Its the same part number though.

From what I can see it is the same unit. I replaced the one that came with my scope and other than a slight design change it is the same. It is not a knock off or similar item, it is a Celestron part.

looks the same, however, be careful when tightening the screw the unit is plastic and will break if to tight.

Same one that came with my Nexstar 6. Rather flimsy my original one cracked when i tightened it onto the mounting rail. I was not able to adjust it so that scope and finder were both aligned. Probably due to the cracked base. I will have to get a replacement though for $16 thats no problem.

I believe it is a 2 year warranty, there is more info on celestrons website.

The threads should be the same for all Nextar scopes as far as my research has turned up. Good luck to you. Celestron is a good company and their products are all top quality.

I was looking at these and changed to a 10 x 50 Celestron " Up Close G2" . They were only $31.16 shipping a d i would by another pair tomorrow if need be. Crisp wide almost 3D vision. Check those out before spending your hard earned bucks.

Basically everything in the picture, it comes with 2 eye pieces as another user stated.http://www.celestron.com/astronomy/celestron-astromaster-70eq.html Under the support tab, you can download the manual - it tells you everything that is in the box.

As far as I know there is not any REAL difference. I have had telescopes with a variety of colors but they have all been flat black on the inside keeping ambirnt light from entering through the side walls of the body.

Yeah, it'll work just fine. All of the Celestron, Orion, Astro-Tech, etc. scopes use the Vixen-style dovetail. Heck, a lot of those scopes come out of the same factories, and just get different brands stamped on them. And I know for a fact that this finder works with Celestron's NexStar 102 tube because I have both of them and have used them together. You're safe!

It's technically the same model (C5) but newer generations of Celestron telescopes are bit more cheaply made. On the other hand, the current model is probably 1/4 the price of what the original versions cost.

a suggestion. go to www. celestron.com go to digital microscopes and look at the options. there is one for $179.00 that you can attach to a TV or computer screen, light in weight. enjoy the search.

I can't answer for the Meade version, but I was so pleased with my Celestron 8-24 mm zoom eyepiece I asked the Denver Museum of Nature and Science to also purchase one for their solar telescope. The volunteers who operate this telescope think its performance, reliability and ease of use are great.

I would think so, There is only 1 of these type stands from Celestron. But check their website!

Yeah, I know. It is possible that Celestron requested it because you quoted an internal letter from them to one of their dealers. In any case, it is not right. Just to let everybody know, Jeff posted an internal letter from Celestron people stating that shipping will be delayed and quantities will be limited due to production difficulties. Small quantites are supposed to be available between the middle and the end of June.

to tell you the truth there isn't any difference, the only slight difference are the dates they were released to amazon, they say you can read with them, you really can't. the motion light with a shade is much better. the electric touch lamp is the best, 3 different levels, $54.

search online for the manual...that shows a complete assembly...put in the full model name "Celestron 31042 AstroMaster 114 EQ Reflector Telescope" followed by the word manual in your search engine, that should help

I don't think so. According to the Celestron website, it is only for SCT telescopes.

I've never tried the 21061, so cannot say how big the difference is. But with more than 1.6x the light gathering power of 21061, 21063 should be able to see more dark sky objects, like nebulae and galaxies. For terrestrial viewing and bright planets, there should be no big difference.

I just found this information on another dealer's website. From: JIM EDMISTON Sent: Monday, May 22, 2006 1:55 PM Subject: SkyScout Production Update Importance: High Unfortunately, we have run into problems securing the GPS crystal for the SkyScout. This crystal was substituted by the factory with a part that we did not specify and resulted in inconsistent GPS readings. We were not informed of this by the factory and discovered it only during our testing of the initial production models. We want to make sure that we put out the best product possible , so we will need to delay our first shipments of SkyScout until mid to late June. The potential of SkyScout is so great that we cannot risk it by sending out product that performs inconsistently. We do not have a firm handle on the initial production quantities at this time, but it is anticipated that they will not be large. Production will be fairly allocated to the major accounts that have placed orders . Please express our apologies to our customers over this situation. Please be assured that this project has the highest priority of all relevant departments at Celestron. Jim Edmiston, Vice President of Sales, Celestron, 2835 Columbia Street, Torrance, CA 90503
